A golf prodigy, in 2015 and 2019 she spent a total of 17 weeks as world number one in the World Amateur Golf Ranking.

Lee grew up in Hermosa Beach, California.

She started competing at age 8 and won 50 junior titles in four years.

The latter victory earned her an exemption into the 2015 Swinging Skirts LPGA Classic where she finished tied 51st.

She received a sponsor's invite for the 2015 ANA Inspiration, missing the cut by one stroke.

She led Mira Costa High School to the state title in 2015.

She won the team gold at the 2017 Summer Universiade in Taipei with Emilee Hoffman and Mariel Galdiano.

In 2019, Lee was semi-finalist at the U.S. Women's Amateur, and won the Mark H. McCormack Medal as the world's top-ranked amateur at the end of the season.

Lee turned professional in late 2019 after she finished T30 at the LPGA Q-Series to earn status for the 2020 LPGA Tour.

In her rookie season, she made 11 cuts in 15 starts with two top-10 finishes, a tie for fifth at the Marathon Classic and a tie for seventh at the 2020 Women's British Open, to finish 48th on the money list.
